Dennis was a charter member of our car club, the Mid-America Chapter of the Avanti Owners Association. He was a terrific friend to all of us, organized events, and helped other members with their car problems. Last year he was recognized by our chapter as Member of the Year. We will miss him greatly and we're very sad that he was suddenly taken from us. We enjoyed his company. We've made a contribution to the Studebaker Museum in his memory.
